PATCH v3 1/3 sunvnet: upgrade to VIO protocol version 1.6

This patch upgrades the sunvnet driver to support VIO protocol version 1.6. In particular, it adds per-port MTU negotiation, allowing MTUs other than ETH_FRAMELEN with ports using newer VIO protocol versions.

These version tests give me a headache, and some of them accept impossible things like major version zero. If we only have major version 1 and later in our version lists, testing things like "major <= 1" makes no sense at all.

That last test quoted above definitely looks wrong, it should be testing "major >= 1" if anything if it is trying to test "version >= 1.6"

Sadly, I expect that we'll have more and more of these version tests over time. So why not make some generic helpers in the VIO or LDC layer?

Sure. I was thinking about something like:

#define VIO_VER(major, minor) (((major)<<16)|(minor))

change the version struct to a 32-bit int, and do things like:

	if (vio->ver > VIO_VER(1,6)) {

unless you have a preference. (?)

I hate wasting space in a structure just to avoid some harmless casting in a helper function that is simply trying to optimize a comparison.

That's why I suggested the inline helpers above, which arguments are strongly typed.

IMO, it would be more readable if we introduce the helper functions that check for a specific feature than a specific version number and hide the version number detail inside that helper function. Otherwise, it will be harder to follow each version number check and why it is being done.

#5 lore raw
In reply to David L Stevens

I have a question around bumping the sunvnet vio_version to 1.6. Each of the versions from 1.0, have a specific feature or behavior defined in the protocol, if a given version is negotiated then peers will assume the Guest can handle all those feature/enhancement automatically. If a given feature is not supported or implemented, it may be best to handle those cases gracefully.

For example, if version 1.3 or higher is negotiated, then Guest is assumed to support vlan packet processing. If 1.5 or later is negotiated, then it is assumed that the Guest will handle the physical link state notice messages. Ideally these enhancements are implemented, as beyond this it would be harder to differentiate if a given guest has the support for them. If not, validate to ensure they are handled gracefully. For example, ensure a physical link state notification message doesn't cause any functional issues such as logging unnecessary warning messages or taking an adverse action such as resetting the channel etc.

This patch upgrades the sunvnet driver to support VIO protocol version 1.6. In particular, it adds per-port MTU negotiation, allowing MTUs other than ETH_FRAMELEN with ports using newer VIO protocol versions.

I have a question around bumping the sunvnet vio_version to 1.6. Each of the versions from 1.0, have a specific feature or behavior defined in the protocol, if a given version is negotiated then peers will assume the Guest can handle all those feature/enhancement automatically. If a given feature is not supported or implemented, it may be best to handle those cases gracefully.

It doesn't (and shouldn't) assume it supports any feature that isn't negotiated, and the code I submitted does not support or negotiate receive rings, for example. It therefore does not set the bit. The VIO protocol can negotiate TSO, which is not supported on Linux, so it doesn't set VNET_LSO_IPV4_CAPAB. And, as in your example, we don't want physical link state updates, so we use PHYSLINK_UPDATE_NONE (==0).

I implemented from the VIO protocol spec and verified interoperability by testing with pre-patched Linux (VIO v1.0) and Solaris 11.1 and 11.2.

For example, if version 1.3 or higher is negotiated, then Guest is assumed to support vlan packet processing.

Nobody should *assume* VLAN support is there based on the VIO protocol version. v1.3 and higher require from the driver that there be space for a vlan header, which I have added in the patch. I did not do anything else with VLAN processing, because this is not a patch to add VLAN support, and nothing requires Solaris to enable it. It is no different with respect to VLAN support than it was before the patch, meaning that if an admin tries to use a feature that isn't supported on all the machines, it won't work, just as it wouldn't work pre-patch to enable VLAN on Solaris and try to use it with Linux over sunvnet. The patch is to update the VIO protocol, which is the layout and semantics of the fields. It is not to support every feature that can be negotiated within the protocol.

The following is a highlevel view of what we have in LDoms virtual network infrastructure.

1. The vio protocol version number to introduce new messages and/or changes to the existing messages.

In the past there may be a case or two where the version number is assumed as a capability, an example is the version 1.3.

2. Flexibility to negotiate or enable individual feature/enhancement. That is attribute negotiation includes the ability for each peer to negotiate any specific feature/enhancement independently of the others.

An example of this are, physical link state updates(that you pointed out), mtu, LSO support, dring mode(TX_DRING or RX_DRING_DATA) etc.

3. Properties in MD(machine description) as way to set or enable these features for a Guest. This typically involves an administrative command.

For example, an administrator can enable/disable the behavior of physical linkstate. The vlan-ids and mtu are also part of the administrative commands.

4. Finally the OS version(and/or patches) that is installed in a guest. Without the OS/driver support, an administrator settings may not work. Most of the controls revolve around the service domain, we use a new framework in place for administrative commands to check if the given service domain has the required support to enforce a specific option. In case of Guest domains, it's just to the Guest to enable/disable or implement a feature.

Please below for my response.

Thanks, if you have verified these cases then it addresses my comment. In the code, it will be good to explicitly set the attribute such as "plnk_updt" to the PHYSLINK_UPDATE_NONE and probably add a comment on top of
it would be even better. The same could be done for the other attribute as well.

That's fine. My point was about we have verified each of these minor version specifics are thought and the behavior is understood.
